A thoughtful analysis of 'analysis' by the MSM pundits.

"It is kind of funny to watch the Beltway insiders discuss the blogosphere. Cokie Roberts and George Will have never been sympathetic to the left. But they describe the Lamont challenge as a 'disaster' for the Democratic Party and as indication that liberal bloggers have taken over. "

"What's really worrying Cokie Roberts and George Will is this display of grassroots power. They hate the Democratic Party, but they feel comfortable having it around as a kind of younger stepchild. If someone like Bill Clinton wants to come along every once in awhile and slash the welfare rolls, that's okay. But god forbid we get a candidate that is actually on the left. What's remarkable is that they have so little to say about how far to the right Bush has governed. It's not centrism they want, it's pro-corporate legislation and huge tax cuts. Once they have that, they'll put up with almost anything."

You have to wonder what folks like Cokie and George are going to do when the public at large finally gets a clue about how the 'analysts' have failed them.
